How to ruin your day in one simple step…
…Go to a japanese restaurant. No seriously.
My clock is ticking at nearly 11 PM and I should’ve been sleeping at around 3 PM, but one of my friends called me and said that I’m invited, alongside some of our friends, to a Japanese restaurant. I’ve been wanting to eat their food since a very long time because I tend to like, play, watch and do everything humanly possible and enjoy it as much as any one would, and even though I was sleepy I couldn’t refuse. I mean, what’s the worst scenario would be; that the food isn’t good? fine with me, you’d wonder what crap I eat every day so that’s not an issue at all.
We went to Genki Sushi. I think it was in Salhiya Mall though I’m not sure what that mall is (I’m not good with malls), but it was a very decent mall —no freaky monsters like in Marina or Sharq. When I first glazed at the restaurant I was actually amazed, everything is so charming and beautiful that just invites you in. I should now that was a trap though…. so anyway, after 15 minutes of searching through their long, tedious menu which consists of more than 80 dishes, I just told my friends to order me anything —everything looked creepy. For appetizers; I got my salad first. It was full of lettuce, corn and a delicious sauce, with slices of avocado and some new vegetables to me. I liked it a lot. The second appetizers were two kind of shrimps; the first one is shaped like a stick (not a regular shrimp, or maybe that’s a coating) with some awesome sauce with it, while the other one was coated with a phosphorish crispy thing that was… awesome as well. The conclusion of the appetizers was great, with some grills done in a Japanese way of mixturing and stuff, which was insanely delicious. At this point I was satisfied, everything was just so good, so now we’re heading for the main dishes now. There were all kind of Sushis. They all look the same, just with some different colors that I don’t give a damn about. I was hesistant but they told me that it’s good and I should go for it. I took a piece (which they told me later that was raw shit) and ate it, and dear heavenly god of the seven skies! what the hell is this thing? I took it all in one bite and I swear to god I was so close to… GOD. How do people eat crap like this? so I said okay, maybe because it’s the first time I eat crap so it feels awkward. I went for another one which had cucumber and… dunno what the rest but looked good. This is even worse! how do you eat cold rice with some sauce and things that don’t even have names? Earth does have all kind of strange things, I’ll give you that. They ordered some other plates with all kind of Sushis which all sucked just by looking at them —pinky sauce, yellowish rice and strange black things; the devil had come to our dinner! I then told them that I’m close o vomitting and wanna go the bathroom (obviously joking), and I went straight to Haagen Daz to get some awesomesauce cups of delicious ice cream that would eventually drain the suckiness that went into my mouth. I ordered Strawbery Cheescake with some Mango one which was really good, so good that I forgot all about the restaurant.
Sushi sucks, but then again; when you see Timon eating cockroaches and actually enjoying it, you just know that TV shouldn’t be taken seriously at all. Sushi is like a cockroach but by anime standards. Don’t even think about it.
